Theo

“After a few sessions Antonella said that Theo wasn’t responding to training as she would have expected and thought this could be because he wasn’t feeling well. As a result of Covid and lockdown it has taken me over a year to discover that Theo does have chronic Irritable Bowel Disease and he is now under the care of a specialist vet who is now working closely with Antonella. The transformation was incredible. Theo is like a different dog. He is less anxious and stressed and able to concentrate and is therefore able to learn new positive behaviours including not reacting to people who come to the house. Antonella’s training methods are designed to help your dog choose to make the right decision. This method requires patience and can take longer before you see results but the long term benefits are so much better because it is less stressful for your dog. Antonella also treats every dog as unique and individual and she will tailor her training to suit the dogs particular needs and environment. It is thanks to Antonella that I now have a more chilled and happier GoldenDoodle and a dog whose company I can enjoy, rather than fear.”
